Hi! I have a problem with configuring my Alcatel Speedtouch USB ADSL modem. I've already read all the howtos that were about it and made the necessary steps to get this stuff work.
OS: Debian woody I've compiled a new kernel according to the howtos: kernel-2.4.21 (I did't have to apply hdlc patch.). hotplug-2003_05_01 speedtouch-1.6 kernel modul speedtouch-1.2-beta1 driver for the Alcatel USB SpeedTouch modem. Hotplugging seems to be working. The system recongizes the USB modem.

Where's my mistake? Hotplugging works, uhci, speedtouch modules loaded, speedmgmt running. I've tried to reload the microcode with modem_run but it didn't work. The modem gives the right led sequence only with speedmgmt . Thank you for any help! Peter Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se désinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
